So there is more going on than than we see.

She has strong evangelist supporters, esp. in Iowa.
AND, her support is now denied to Cruz.

Hopefully, her ability to sink political boats is also still intact.

The host was saying that this would help Trump with women.

I called in. "Iam have no idea why he got anywhere near her. Her angle is probably that she wants to run for the Senate.

Host: but this will help him with women.
Me: no it won't. She's a joke. Women aren't going to vote for them just because she's on the ticket. Which she won't be.
Host: but that's the basis of Hillary's campaign. That she's a woman.
Me: no it's not. That might work on talk radio but it's not close to the truth
Host: okay gotta let you go CLICK

It is going to sink Cruz. Sarah Palin has a large following amongst the crazy right wing tea party types as well as evangelicals. This basically legitimize Trump in their eyes. On top of that, the iowa governor (a GOP) said that Iowans should not vote for Cruz. I am pretty sure Trump will win Iowa. I would not be surprised if she runs for VP again.
